Week 10 Start/Sit Wide Receivers: Odunze, Shakir to Start | FullTime
Week 10 Start/Sit: Wide Receivers
The right start/sit decisions can swing a matchup.
By Adam Krautwurst
Start
Rome Odunze
Odunze was blanked in Week 9, but he should rebound quickly. The Giants have been one of the most generous defenses to wideouts, giving up the seventh-most fantasy points to the position and allowing 12 receivers to score at least 14 PPR points. With Caleb Williams expected to attack through the air, Odunze is a strong starting option in all formats.
Khalil Shakir
Buffalo enters the week with the highest projected point total, and Shakir has the single-best wide receiver matchup according to FantasyPoints Data. Working from the slot, he’ll see a lot of Minkah Fitzpatrick, who is being targeted at one of the highest rates in the league and has allowed the most fantasy points per route run among qualifying corners. Shakir leads the Bills in targets per route and has 15 catches in his last two games. With elite efficiency and a favorable setup, he profiles as a strong WR2.
Sit
Jordan Addison
Addison struggled in his first game with J.J. McCarthy, dropping in target share and finishing with a season-low 8.4 points. Baltimore hasn’t allowed a receiver touchdown in three straight weeks, and McCarthy’s passing volume is limited. Addison’s talent keeps him on the radar, but his reliance on touchdowns makes him risky. He’s a low-end flex.
Deebo Samuel
Samuel has slumped over his last three games, totaling just 12 catches for 67 yards and failing to score. With Marcus Mariota starting, Samuel has posted 4.9 fantasy points or fewer in two of three previous games. Detroit presents a difficult matchup, making Samuel a starter only in deeper three-receiver formats.
